The mission of CBCS is to provide a state-of-the-art platform and expertise for the generation of high-quality bioactive chemical tools (small organic molecules) for applications within life science research in general and with the ultimate goal to explore complex biology. For more information, visit the CBCS external webpage.

CBCS was established in 2010 as a nation-wide infrastructure for chemical biology research consisting of two facilities, one at Karolinska Intitutet, LCBKI, and the other at Umeå University, LCBU. In 2012 CBCS became an integrated platform at SciLifeLab.

SciLifeLab has been created by the coordinated effort of four universities in Stockholm and Uppsala: Stockholm University, Karolinska Institutet, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Uppsala University.
